In looking at that 1949 promotional film again, I see it really doesn't specify printing only, so maybe in that film they were proposing shooting with 35mm 3-strip and reducing to 16mm for prints. And maybe they were carefully avoiding the subject until the client came in and saw the difference in cost between 3-strip and single-strip shooting.
